Here's What You Never Knew About Lily From AT&T Commercials
AT&T does whatever they can to get people to use their service and buy their phones. Like most companies, they rely heavily on advertising. Over the years, they have come out with plenty of commercials with various actors and actresses. One actress who starred in AT&T commercials is Milana Vayntrub, aka Lily. Here’s What You Never Knew About Lily From The Iconic AT&T Ads.
Milana Vayntrub was born in Tashkent, which is now known as Uzbekistan, the Soviet Socialist Republic. She and her Jewish parents came to the United States as refugees after fleeing due to religious persecution. She was very young when she came to the United States, and shortly after arriving, she started acting. She was just two-years-old when he landed an appearance for Barbie commercials. Milana had some small roles in shows like ER, Days of Our Lives, and Lizzie McGuire.
Milana attended Beverly Hills High School, but she dropped out during her senior year. After getting her GED, she earned her Bachelor of Arts in Communication from the University of San Diego. She never got rid of the acting, but that bit her as a child, and she started studying improv comedy at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater.
Milana made a name for herself as one of the Live Prude Girls on the hit YouTube show. This led her to land small comedy roles and more substantial roles in This Is Us and Squirrel Girl in Marvel’s New Warriors. Unfortunately, the project didn’t work out, and there is no way of knowing if we will ever see the final product.
Milana has excellent comic ability, which caught the eye of AT&T’s marketing execs. They called her in for a single AT&T commercial, and the ad was a huge hit. It gained so much attention that they kept calling Milana back to star in more commercials. Over time, she starred in 40 commercials. AT&T’s Vice President of Marketing, Valerie Vargas, spoke with Ad Week magazine about Milana, and she said, “The first spot was so successful for us that we thought, let’s do another one, and then another one, and then another one. It was so well received that we kept bringing her back.” She soon became known as the ATT girl or Lily from at&t.
The ad execs and the public weren’t the only ones who loved Milana’s commercials. It also caught the attention of celebrities, including Amy Schumer. She liked the spots so much that she thought they were worth parodying. Some people loved Amy’s parody, but Milana herself didn’t. When speaking with Ad Weekly about the parody, she said, “The way that you’re going to portray this character is that you’re going to play her dumb? Well, that’s just lazy.” Milana made sure to point out that Lily wasn’t eye candy. People loved the character because of her sass and her brains. She says that she is proud of the character she helped to create.
Milana came to the United States as a refugee, and she knows how difficult it can be. In 2016, when things began falling apart in Syria, and the devastation reached a boiling point, Milana traveled to Greece. She went there to meet with the refugee families who were fleeing due to the Syrian Civil War. The trip made her want to do something, so she co-founded a website and a social media movement called #CantDoNothing. She wanted to put a spotlight on the European migrant crisis. Along with entrepreneur, Eron Zehavi, the charity is focused on helping everyday people make real change. The purpose of the charity and the social media movement is to raise awareness to get people to pay attention, volunteer, and donate money to the cause. This is a cause that is close to Milana’s heart, and she is very passionate about the cause.
We may not have seen Milana on television trying to sell AT&T products through her commercials, but this doesn’t mean that we have seen the last of her. She has amazing talent and great comedic timing. With the right project, Milana can really go far. Her main focus today is on her career and helping other refugees. With a talent like hers, you can expect pretty great things in the future. Her role as Squirrel Girl may be on the back burner for now, but she is still working. In 2019, she appeared in Hot Chip’s video for their hit song, Hungry Child. Only time will tell how long it will be before we see her again, but you can be sure it will be soon. With a talent like hers, it is only a matter of time before we see her on television or the big screen. We may even see her on a few AT&T commercials this holiday season. You never know..

Milkers
She’s a ditz. With thunder thighs. Not very good looking pretty average. She’s got zero talent!!!
Raw, no regret. Give her 2 kids. Ring on her finger.
Oh, she’s doing commercials again.
Lily, Oh my goodness, Lily. What a talent and a total fox.
BORAT?
How come she has blue eyes in her baby pictures???
Who cares, seriously. Iconic? You should’ve been born in the iconic times people.
Amy Schumer is a sweathog.
She’s back in the current AT&T commercials.
I still think she should have clobbered Kevin Pearson for ditching her on the opening night of her play.
shes cute and fun..wtg att t
She’s lucky she came here before Donald ‘Duck The Draft’ Trump became President or she wouldn’t have been allowed in the US. Well…He would have made her an exception because she’s white. LOL!!!
"Lily", a.k.a. Milana Vayntrub, has compelling attractiveness and charm that comes through the TV screen. Her smile is infatuating. Adding beauty to her charisma, "Lily" becomes irresistible. AT&T’s Ad Agency did a great job in finding the perfect actress for the role. Too bad AT&T cannot get its core business as perfect.
So,…she’s a Leftist Activist?
She’s absolutely gorgeous
Milana – is looking rough now. Latest adds suck.
Stand Tall & Stay Strong
Right, so if she was hideous I’m sure her commercial appearances would still be popular.
Hang in there.! Love your commercials.
"Lily" is beautiful! People should leave her alone.
She carries her talents up front where everyone can see and admire. She is very well hung! She is now seen doing HBO ads.
There’s something about her that reminds of Rose on 2 1/2 Men.
Iconic?
Keep
She is more than eye candy. She and her family were refugees—came to this country when she was four. HIAS, an international refugee assistance organization, helped them get settled, and she has never forgotten. She is very active in trying to help refugees.
I think she IS eye candy!🤷
Just to be clear, Tashkent is the capital of Uzbekistan, which is no longer a SSR.
I liked Lily’s commercials so much we use ATT for Ye Pirate’s Workshop’s business phones. AT&T struck gold with Lily.
Wiona Ryder look alike😍
Huh? I always thought she was eye candy
I think she is beautiful
Do you like Lily or Flo commercials more?
Why show a baby with blue eyes and lily has beautiful brown eyes i don’t get it?
Did someone pay to show there baby just to show off there kids? why ? we want to
see melona or lily no knock offs please…………
With talent like hers …. um yep. Golly.
Shoulder boulders
I’d put a pearl necklace on that
Lilly is a cutie. I thinks she’s going places.
Iconic? Wow. That is setting some low standards.
MCU can use her as Black Cat or some character
When I have to ask myself is my boys or my wife going to see this then I shouldn’t be looking at it either, didn’t need to see her twins
I never knew she was so big, a natural girl.
I hear she had a breast reduction for her comeback? Not to take away from a seemingly very accomplished and nice person.
Nice cans on that
Seems like a wonderful young lady!
Hi beautiful
Lily is soft on the eyes. Unlike Spectrum who uses that old hag that seems like a cat lady and sounds like she smokes 2 packs a day and doesn’t own a hair brush.
She should be calling me in that commercial! No matter what she’s wearing! 😂
Shes a neautiful lady
